The G,eenville Enterprise says: "We think it due to a great many creditors in this and other parta of the State, that their liberal and generous course ini compromising old debts should be comn mended as it des-erves. We have heard recently of many instances of liberal settlementa between parties, and we believe that the &iposition to make them haa decidedly increased of late. Parties have gil become more and more im pressed *ith the ress-onableness of conm promises, and a liberal scaling-public opinion of the people generally, and the advice of the lawyers, all favor them at at this time. We h'ave seen that in Andesn the juries brought in. v:erdicts al 'old debts,, and. iere' sustained by eapproval of the people and the bar. The feeling as to; such debts will still extend in eeer-y county 'according to the circumstances.'

This C time we are lost in astonishment I who else would have thought .of invading a .church for a jury. It was a sharp trick, but whether the idea originated In our young frend's P brain, or be was put up to it, which matters u not, we pronounce the style of the thing, R abominable, heathenish and unchristian- it He had beard that we attended church; he p was after us in particular. We saw him as the doors opened, and the congregation filed out. He picked up his men right and left, g and con!d have got the number wanted with. n out waiting for us, but that would not an- i swer his purpose. The unlucky man who R wrote the notice some. weeks back about him-and which by the way was in the highest degree complimentary-must be cl had. We stayed in until nearly all had gone, but he clung toI his idea like grim death to a dead nigger, and like Shylock PI crying for his pound of flesb, said: "He'd .hi have that editor man or perish at the door." hi We went out and succumbed gracefully, be h> shonld never know thesgony of that meet% .of ing. and promised to attend. He returned ! to his boss, and no doubt they chuckled fC over it. Well let em latigh tbey are into us a di "feet or a feet and a hllf," and take- AD w the credit for so sharp an affair; and though the plan succeeded and we were at a last-brmgbt to.sit-on the jury, It Is certain st that the end did not justify the means. And et we insist hereafter, for the respectability of w the thing, that juries be: picked up on the m street, and not at the church door. It is ki unbply, horrible, diabolical, shameful, dis. P1 graceful, sinful, baneil and abominable. i be A.-.Snowr C uArEa.-Time in its revo lutions has added another year to the vy local's life; the anniversary of this aus- w picious event happened one day last to week.
